Daguan Garden is constructed in the traditional residential style of Tongli, Suzhou. Incorporating Jiangnan garden techniques such as decorative windows, winding corridors, paved paths, rock arrangements, framed views, borrowed scenery, opposing views, and leaking scenery, ensuring that every step offers a scenic experience.

"Examining the profound through the divine, understanding all things with a broad perspective" — the name "Daguan" (达观) for both the garden and the main building reflects both insightful wisdom and adaptability to circumstances. Within the garden, there are pavilions and structures like “Spring Fills the Southeast”, “Fuyun Pavilion”, “Diyuan”, “Zhuoju Cottage”, “Xibo Terrace”, “Qiongju Corridor”, “Huaiyun Kitchen”, “Ouyoumei”, and “Weaver's Residence”, as well as the “Rain Preview Boat”, all named and inscribed by the renowned Taiwanese writer Mr. Zhang Dachun.

Following the garden design principle of "adapting to the four seasons, where every scene is timely", Daguan Garden features cherry blossoms, peach blossoms, plum blossoms, camellias, magnolias, redbuds, crabapples, and peonies blooming in spring, pomegranates in summer, red maples in autumn, and wintersweet in winter, each creating a unique seasonal landscape.
